More quotes by Warren G. Harding

He liked to play chess and do intelligent things, and I was a serious drinker and nonthinker.

Warren G. Harding
I knew that this job would be too much for me.
Warren G. Harding
The black man should seek to be, and he should be encouraged to be, the best possible black man and not the best possible imitation of a white man.
Warren G. Harding
I hurt with the insatiate longing, until I feel that there will never be any relief until I take a long, deep, wild draught on your lips.
Warren G. Harding
The success of our popular government rests wholly upon the correct interpretation of the deliberate, intelligent, dependable popular will of America.
Warren G. Harding
I was spent up. I sure grabbed that girl of mine.
Warren G. Harding
It is my conviction that the fundamental trouble with the people of the United States is that they have gotten too far away from Almighty God.
Warren G. Harding
I don't know much about Americanism, but it's a damn good word with which to carry an election.
Warren G. Harding
I expect it is very possible that I would make as good a President as a great many men who are talked of for that position.
Warren G. Harding
Treat your friend as if he will one day be your enemy, and your enemy as if he will one day be your friend
